My Journey as an Illustrator...
Out of Necessity...
Art is my way of connecting with the world and expressing my true self. Whether I’m designing a book cover, creating a quilt, preparing a meal, or sharing my story on my podcast, I feel most alive when I'm in the flow of creation. When I’m not creating, I feel disconnected from my authentic self. This passion drives my desire to help others bring their visions to life through art, whether it's for a book, home design, or something else.
When it comes to your book, the creation of a unique cover is more than just a visual design—it’s about capturing the essence of your story. A thoughtfully crafted cover serves as a window into the world you’ve created, sparking curiosity and inviting readers to engage with your book. It stands out, evokes emotion, and often influences a reader’s decision to pick it up.
Every cover I design is an opportunity to bring your voice to life. I take great pride in ensuring that every detail reflects your book’s spirit, and that it resonates with both you, the author, and the readers it’s meant to reach. My goal is to create a cover that’s true to your vision, while making it memorable and impactful.
